That catless downpipe really wakes the car up. It sounds so good too!

[@papi5236]

Man Im going to get an 340i this week and this channel has everything. Thank you 👏🏼

[@bavarianbuilds5217]

Thank so much for this! I’ll be installing this on my 340i as well 🙏🏼

[@samuel0403]

Love your videos! Thanks for making them.

[@Johnw321Films]

Thanks for posting! Used this as a reference to install my catless vrsf today :) sounds great!

[@livingwithgeorge5854]

Great choice with the Down pipe, had to do the same with my car!

[@JustAwesome2020]

Nice upgrade 👍

[@GearsAndGuns]

Good video brother! I might have to do this

[@mujjuman]

wow man the sky is SO blue in north carolina... and super green everywhere lol. i'm from new york

[@llkjjjss]

That's called over saturation my dude

[@Kai240i]

I guess VRSF did some update to their B58 downpipe, now with the supporting bracket, and hopefully they fix the O.D pipe going to midpipe. Their previous version downpipe was a tad too big and won't fit midpipe without the use of a pipe expander tool, almost every buyer of the old downpipe was complaining about this issue.

[@NoClutchGarage]

They may have 🤷🏻‍♂️ I was thinking the same.

[@TheFanatic340]

it also has an issue with hitting the support underneath and rattling, mine has this issue, there isnt enough clearance no matter how you put it on

[@NoClutchGarage]

I have heard of this issue!

[@douglasduch3337]

Nice content, like always, vrsf or racewekers ??, quality is really good on both, CTS intake on its way by the way 😜, milltek catback or scorpion ??? milltek has 2 tubes from the downpipe to the backbox, instead of just one pipe for the scorpion, don't know which one to get. What's your catback setup ??

[@NoClutchGarage]

I’m stock from the downpipe back. Looking at the DINAN midpipes though. VRSF and Racewerks are both good, it’s up to preference at that point but VRSF seems to have a wider pipe...

[@MC-ez6lq]

Im having this installed this week! I got my M240 almost 2 weeks ago. I have an intake on and I can’t wait to hear it with the downpipe on!. Hopefully within a month or 2 I can flash it

[@NoClutchGarage]

Just as a heads up, you will have a CEL until you flash the monitors off

[@chrispedraza4140]

@@NoClutchGaragehow do you do that? I have MHD.

[@NoClutchGarage]

@@chrispedraza4140 On flash options you should see an option that turns O2 monitoring off

[@Steveindajeep]

Really gotta do this upgrade......cause it is an upgrade for sure.

[@NoClutchGarage]

Indeed! Be ready for a flash tune soon after!

[@Steveindajeep]

@@NoClutchGarage Recommend any lol? I already have the MPPSK btw.

[@mikeb718]

Can you still have a control on the sound by adding a flap actuator like the m performance exhaust kit has ?

[@NoClutchGarage]

DP is not related to the flap actuator

[@Bluetheartist]

What kind of special downpipe do you have??

[@steveb540i]

A pain to take that job on without a lift. No anti-seize on your O2 sensor threads? A pipe expander tool is recommended to get the mid-pipe back on easier. For the catless pipes, suggest use of the 90 degree M18x1.5 mini catalytic CEL bung adapter plug spacer for O2 sensor- even sold on Amazon. A high flow 200 cell catted pipe better for daily routine street use with less smell imho. I really wanna do this to my leased 540i... but don't want to be on the hook for reversing it out at lease return.

[@NoClutchGarage]

Definitely a pain! An adapter wasn’t really necessary though I thought about it!

[@mikedonovan7947]

Did the VRSF pipe come with a new gasket installed or did you use the old one? Not sure if I saw that step in the video.

[@ryanrichards1852]

No it dont

This mod will throw a code in the dash? Asking because I want to put one similar to my m140i

[@leotsmackscheeks4577]

Will the engine light come on If I install this on my 2022 540i msport

[@benjaminbrunner7882]

Imma act like you didn’t try to loosen that o2 sensory while cranking right but😂

[@NoClutchGarage]

Hey mistakes happen LMAO

[@avgfinnishdude]

do you know is it hard to do on a n20?

[@vyset227]

When I switched out my downpipe for the careless downpipe there was a loud rattling sound coming from the downpipe and it only happens on cold start is there any reason for that

[@NoClutchGarage]

It’s probably hitting a heat shield or the subframe

[@willm2624]

What about the CEL light with the secondary O2 sensor, what’s the fix for that?

[@yomido4018]

Tune

[@toppedout6530]

What’s up man I purchased a downpipe for my 240 but it doesn’t have the small bracket that the two bolts go through do you think this would be an issue

[@NoClutchGarage]

No, most performance down pipes don’t have it either, you should be good!

[@mick9802]

Impressive, changing it without normal lift is very creative. I had downpipe installed, but after 3000 km I downgraded it back to the stock one because of smell. Every time when I stoped on the traffic lightI - I was feeling this smell (even with closed windows). I could imaging what people in the car behind me was feeling. Wonder if sport cat can solve it?

[@NoClutchGarage]

Sport cat is definitely better for smell

[@thegrmcrckr488]

You had an exhaust leak. You shouldn't smell anything in the vehicle

[@NickOnPar]

I think the catted downpipe would sound less raspy right?

[@yomido4018]

No

[@Tantrix1]

Hey quick question, If i did a sports cat on my OEM Exhaust note its not MPE will i get burbles and some crackles and pops? (540i B58)

[@NoClutchGarage]

What?

[@jeffw9652]

I just installed the catted hi flow vrsf and did a dual res delete, my 340 is crazy LOUD now.

[@JE335]

I don’t want drone in mines, is that a good setup? I’m getting a catless downpipe and I was thinking of deleting my muffler and deleting one resonator but keeping the other to avoid drone. Or just delete the muffler.

[@boostedbavarian]

@@JE335 no its not a good mod. Sounds like shit.

[@NoClutchGarage]

I only did a single resonator delete and called it a day

[@MrVuittonDon]

How can I remove the check engine light regarding the downpipe/custom exhuast fabrications? Is there a way to remove the codding ONLY for the exhuast part and not the check engine entirely? Is there a sensory cap I cam plug in to trick the system? (2018 BMW 230i F22) PLEASE HELP 🙏🏼🙈

[@NoClutchGarage]

You need a tune

[@jonathangarn9635]

I have a catless dp for my b58 with mg flasher stage 1. Scared about boost creep, have you heard anything about this or can you give any advice? Will I run into boost creep with this setup? Thanks

[@NoClutchGarage]

Boost creep will not happen on this setup.

[@amzlife03]

If I were to get a high flow catted downpipe, could I pass smog still? Since I do have cats.

[@NoClutchGarage]

Yes

[@Jeebus0143]

If I don't want a tune, isn't a midpipe a lot simplier?

[@NoClutchGarage]

Not simpler but a good alternative in terms of sound not in terms of flow

[@petertalat207]

Did you remove the ring in the stock down pipe and put it on the vrsf one or not because I did mine and I didn’t put it on and I was wondering if it’s okay?

[@NoClutchGarage]

If you can transfer it do so. I have seen these be installed without them but I do not recommend that as you could have an exhaust leak as a reault

[@hgill9866]

Do you get the little rattle sound when you start up the car during cold start ? I installed a ER catless dp and the cold start makes the exhaust rattle wondering if it's the same with vsrf

[@NoClutchGarage]

That rattle means you’re probably hitting a heat shield somewhere. No rattle with this DP.

[@BlowinGrapesss]

The rattle with catless downpipe is usually wastegate rattle

[@hcrtoothy]

After installing the downpipe, did you have the CEL come on? Is a tune required?

[@NoClutchGarage]

Yes a tune is required! You can use O2 Sensor spacers but they’re not very efficient solutions.

[@hcrtoothy]

@@NoClutchGarage Great! Thanks!

[@Dardania07]

I want this for the 440i vrsf downpipe vrsf chargepipe , coldair intake and an bm3 ecu tune stage 2 what do u think of that ? The goal is 420+ hp.

[@b58xcv64]

Don’t do cold air intake, just stick to a drop in filter to avoid heat soak. Drop in filter, catless DP, stage 2 bm3 you’ll be 430-450

[@Dardania07]

@@b58xcv64 thanks i also been told to tune the transmission with the xhp stage 3

Yes

[@bsturn]

Do you know if the catted VRSF dp would pass emissions?

[@NoClutchGarage]

It would not

[@MajorB58]

need atleast 300-400 cell sport cat to pass emissions

[@mr.wildcat405]

I hear about an exhaust expansion tool being required for the DP to fit into the exhaust. Other folks experienced this?

[@ogtegx5222]

Depending on how tight your midpipe opening is. I had to open mine up a few mm.

[@creaxtion]

Hey quick question. Looking to do this install on my g22 How did you get jack stands in place? Cant seem to find my front central jack point

[@NoClutchGarage]

There are jack points along the sides and as far as s a front central jack point I just placed the jack stand on the subframe.

[@creaxtion]

@@NoClutchGarage sounds good u think itd be safe to use a hydraulic jack on one side and a scissor on the other instead of stands?

[@NoClutchGarage]

@@creaxtion Honestly you’d be just fine with one jack and a jack stand.

[@creaxtion]

@@NoClutchGarage alright i appreciate it also how hard is it to reach the o2 sensors before taking off the downpipe, i heard its much easier taking them off before?

[@NoClutchGarage]

@@creaxtion It’s easy, just do it from the top.

Hello nice video, there is a rattling sound in the cold start or its normal ?

It makes it easier

Just curious how many VBand tightening fittings are they that attach DP to turbo flange? 2 or 3 ....torque specs? And specs for bracket bolts and bolts that attach DP to midpipe? Thx man

would be a dream to install catless dp in germany 😓😂

Did that happen to u as well? And how do u fix it

[@scottpham1981]

@@jordy652 it's because it's a cat-less down-pipe which will not pass a state emission test and throw a engine light. It's usually use when you tune a car using BootMod3 or MHD and that will clear that engine light for you. If you are not planing to tune your car, then you should buy a high flow Catted down-pipe not the cat-less one.

[@NoClutchGarage]

Exactly what Scott said!

[@SwnkyTiger]

@@jordy652 A proper 02 spacer, preferably one with a 90 degree angle in most cases will prevent this CEL. There are some stories where it doesn't work but, many of them turn out to be grounding issues or improper installation.
